Hello!
Thank you for the query.
It looks like you have not had proper diagnostics yet. Your symptoms are very characteristic for peptic ulcer. In such case upper GI endoscopy is advisable with Helicobacter Pylori test. It is very common that peptic ulcers cant get healed because of this infection. That is why it is very important to have it checked and if positive antibiotics are necessary.
Sometimes such symptoms can be caused by gallstones. That is why if no findings in endoscopy, abdominal ultrasound should be performed as well as full blood work, liver tests and pancreas tests.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
